I have them on my fingers and rheumy never comments when he examines my hands. They started spongy and eventually hardened.

I had them (spongey ones, not hard) when my RA was very active many years ago but as soon as it got under control they disappeared.

Yes they should be made aware the nodules are a problem. I hope you can speak to/email the nurse very soon.

They come and go on occasion and are itchy. Nothing to worry about just a bit annoying.

I've had these they come and go; haven't had them for more than a year. Had them larger though; lasted a month, not painful.
